As Hannah browsed through the images, the officers behind her scrutinized them as well.
“Stop right there!” a policewoman suddenly exclaimed.
“Scroll upwards a bit!”
Hannah scrolled the photo upwards using the mouse.
Pointing at the laptop screen, the policewoman said, “Notice the timestamp. This is a moonlit beach photo taken around 10 PM the night before last.”
Upon closer inspection, Hannah found the policewoman was correct. The man had been alive at that point, confirming that she’d heard his call for help afterward.
Finding no further significant clues in the photos, Hannah clicked open his WhatsApp.
To everyone’s dismay, there were no relevant messages. Just as disappointment filled the room, Hannah lifted a finger.
“I can attempt to recover the WhatsApp chat history. Just give me a moment.”
Minutes passed as Hannah focused intently on the Laptop, her fingers dancing across the keyboard, yet the chat history remained elusive.
“Having trouble?”
“Recovery might not be possible when phone apps are being managed via computer, right?”
Hannah quickly typed out a message in a new dialog box, sending the dead man’s information to an unknown contact.
“Can you help me recover his WhatsApp conversations?”

A swift reply appeared on the screen.
“Working on it now.”
In less than 20 minutes, a new message popped up on the laptop.
“The chat history is back. Take a Look.”
Upon reading the message, Hannah reopened the dead man’s WhatsApp.
“Something seems off about his last conversation.”
Realizing the gravity of her discovery, she promptly stood up and announced, “I’ll leave this in your hands.”
The police tech officer quickly took a seat and began reviewing the chat logs of the dead man.
“If you fork over another 30@ grand, I’ll let the matter rest and won’t distribute the photo.”
“You snap one photo and I’ve already coughed up 100 grand! Enough is enough! You think you can gouge me like this?
